Old cookbook- link included to download one from 1920

I went to a junk shop over the weekend and bought two awesome cookbooks from the early 1900's. I've been playing w/the recipes and they are both so cool. You can make so much from the most basic ingredients!

This one from 1932, Rumford Complete Cook Book- here it is on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/Rumford-Complete-Cook-Book-1932_W0QQitemZ190287823117QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAntiq uarian_Collectible?hash=item190287823117&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A13 18|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50).



And this one from 1920, Good Food: How To Prepare It by George Cornforth. Oh, found a download (http://www.archive.org/details/goodfoodhowtopr00corngoog) of this one online!!! I made the orange pudding on page 158 the other day- super yummy and very easy. I think it would be better w/strawberries, though.


Hmmm....that download site looks like it could be VERY useful. :D

Doh. I wrote cooksbook. Haha, if a mod sees this can you fix that?

just future reference.... whenever you notice that you've bungled a title, if you go to the forum it's posted in, double-click on the line w/ your thread title...

if no one else has posted to the thread, it will allow you to edit the title yourself (prolly dependent upon your web browser as well).

Thanks, mods! And thanks Constituent. I should have known that. :o
